Mathematics Illuminated (VideoTutorial)

COURSE OVERVIEW

Mathematics Illuminated is a 13-part, integrated-media resource created for adult learners and high school teachers. The series covers the broad scope of human knowledge through the study of mathematics and its relevance in the world today. It reaches beyond formulas and computations to explore the math of patterns, symmetry, relationships, multiple dimensions, and more, all the while uncovering the secrets and hidden delights of the ever-evolving world of mathematics.

Mathematics Illuminated unites the strengths of traditional and new media learning through the coordinated 13 half-hour videos, online texts, web interactive activities, and group activities.

Developed with an Advisory Board of leading scholars and high school teachers from across the United States, the course examines mathematics from a holistic perspective, offering an enthusiastic approach that will help learners understand the broad spectrum of disciplines that make up the field of mathematics. The information and activities will help all learners solidify unfamiliar and/or complex concepts by delving into the "why" and not just the "how" of approaching mathematical questions. Mathematics Illuminated explores many of the great historical figures in mathematics and the problems they confronted; it also introduces you to some of the fascinating people who are embracing and studying today's emerging questions. Mathematics Illuminated provides an overview of how the content of the course connects and supports national and local standards in mathematics. Using these materials, teachers can simultaneously build content knowledge and explore and engage with new mathematical applications.

Data Warehousing

The data warehousing revolution has been underway for over ten years
within information technology (IT) departments around the world. If
you’re an IT professional, or you’re fashionably referred to as a knowledge
worker (someone who regularly uses computer technology in the course of
your day-to-day business operations), data warehousing is for you! If you
haven’t heard of this phenomenon, you might be aware of the tools that
access the data warehouse — business intelligence tools. Data Warehousing
For Dummies, 2nd Edition, guides you through the overwhelming amount of
hype about this subject to help you get the most from data warehousing.
If you’re an IT professional (a software developer, database administrator,
software development manager, or data-processing executive), this book provides
you with a clear, no-hype description of data warehousing technology
and methodology — what works, what doesn’t work, and why.
If you regularly use computers in your job to find information and facts as
a contracts analyst, researcher, district sales manager, or any one of thousands
of other jobs in which data is a key asset to you and your organization,
this book has in-depth information about the real business value (again,
without the hype) that you can gain from data warehousing
